Short description Morfologia | Morfometria

Spine dorsali (totale): 0; Raggi dorsali molli (totale): 22-25; Spine anali 0; Raggi anali molli: 26 - 28. Body pale, with 8-12 narrow, short bars across dorsal surface (Ref. 5467). Dorsal saddles not reaching, even if present, a lateral band. Combined number of soft rays in dorsal and anal fins usually 44 to 51 (Ref 12874).

Benthic in surge-swept sand patches and shorelines (Ref. 1602, 58302). Found in sea bottoms with coarse sand and fine gravel 4-20 m deep (Ref. 90102). Occurs in small groups that bury themselves in coarse sand patches on reef corners subject to currents (Ref. 48636).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 24.2 - 29.3, mean 28.2 °C (based on 2840 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5156 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.1 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
